The Fear of Man and You - Six Faces of People Pleasing and Approval Addiction

Fear of Man Part 2

Have you ever felt the pressure to constantly please others or hide your true self? You're not alone! In Part 2 of our "Fear of Man" series, we go beyond the "Bushel Boy" anecdote (from Part 1) to explore the universal human desire for approval. Join us as we unpack six distinct ways this "fear of man" can ensnare us:

The Achiever: Always striving for perfection and recognition.

The Accommodator: The classic people-pleaser who struggles with boundaries.

The Chameleon: Adapting to fit in, losing touch with their true identity.

The Peacekeeper: Avoiding conflict at all costs, even at the expense of truth.

The Rescuer: Finding worth in "fixing" everyone else's problems.

The Attention Seeker: Constantly needing to be noticed and validated.

We'll discuss the underlying fears and insecurities that drive these behaviours and reveal the biblical truth that offers freedom. Which of these "faces" speaks most to your experience?
